Data Sheet AETIGERENPA Tiger Helicopter PUREair System The Ultimate in Engine Protection The Tiger attack helicopter is currently used by several European defense forces as well as the Australian Army. It has been deployed in desert operations and in 2009 the French Army Tiger helicopter received its operational certificate for use in Afghanistan. The PUREair system is the perfect solution for such challenging operations. It provides the highest level of engine protection which results in: • Reduced maintenance & operational costs © Airbus Helicopters • Increased operational availability & reduced downtime • Increased engine reliability PUREair system for the Tiger helicopter • Safer operation (protection against FOD, ice, snow and sand) • Protection against engine erosion For more information: WEB: FLTR.com.au PHONE: (+61) 1300 62 4020 EMAIL: [email protected] SKYPE: Purple.Engineering Product Details PUREair Vortex Tube Pall P/N: QB0677 (Left), QB0678 (Right) Principle of operation Scavenge air Scavenge System: Fan with contaminant Certified for inadvertent entry into icing conditions.

The Department of Defence has indicated in a number of reports over the past few years, that they would like to replace the current Tiger helicopter and have generated an RFI last year to examine options for so doing. The choices being discussion are the Tiger replacing itself; or the American options, either the US Army’s Apache or the USMC’s Viper attack helicopters. And there have been suggestions as well by some analysts, that the Australian Army should forgo replacing its current ARH and add an unmanned capability and to prepare for the coming of the US Army’s next generation attack helicopter which is at least a decade or more away. But as is often the case, a platform choice is not simply about side by side comparisons as if picking different styles of bananas but are choices that have tactical and strategic consequences.

Four Tigers Delivered for Deployment to Afghanistan
Four Tigers Delivered For Deployment to Afghanistan Berlin, September 12, 2012 A significant milestone in Eurocopter’s Tiger support helicopter program has been reached following the delivery of the first four helicopters to be upgraded for deployment to Afghanistan. This now leaves the German Army in possession of a complete batch of ASGARD helicopters – a vital prerequisite if the Tiger is to be deployed in theater by the end of the year. The Afghanistan Stabilization German Army Rapid Deployment (ASGARD) program of modifications for the Tiger Support Helicopter was agreed by Eurocopter and the Federal Ministry of Defence at the end of 2011 and includes a sand filter, additional defense weaponry, a mission data recorder and enhanced communications equipment for multinational missions. “The Tiger presents the Bundeswehr with an unquestionably modern machine for its operations, with the ASGARD configuration ideally tailored to Afghanistan. However, it is equally true to say that in the long term this helicopter will do its duty in a whole range of possible combat scenarios,” explains Eurocopter President & CEO Dr. Lutz Bertling. Since last July, a total of four aircraft newly configured for Afghanistan have been delivered to 36 Combat Helicopter Regiment in Fritzlar, which allowed preparations for deployment from the end of 2012 to start in good time. The second batch of a further four helicopters is due to be delivered from December onwards, as agreed with the Bundeswehr. To date, Eurocopter has delivered 93 Tigers in all, including 27 UHTs to the Bundeswehr. Altogether, the helicopters in Germany, France, Spain and Australia have logged over 38,350 flight hours, while the Tigers of the French Armed Forces alone have seen over 3,750 hours of service in Afghanistan, and 250 in Libya.

U.S. and German Aviators Test New Attack Helicopter in Grafenwoehr
Grafenwoehr Germany - U.S. Chief Warrant Officer 3 Dennis Krumholz (left) and German Army Maj. Goetz Odendahl (right) discuss the outcomes from the live-fire exercise in which they participated. U.S. Army Photo by Sgt. Rick Frost, 114th PAD, JMTC PAO. U.S. and German aviators test new attack helicopter in Grafenwoehr By Army Sgt. Rick Frost, 114th Public Affairs Detachment, New Hampshire National Guard May 27, 2011 GRAFENWOEHR, Germany -- The training between US and German aviators has changed with Germany’s introduction of a new attack helicopter. For the first time, aviators from both countries participated in a coordinated, live-fire training exercise with the U.S. and its rotary-wing, aviation assets. They utilized the U.S. AH-64 Apache Attack Helicopter and Germany’s new Eurocopter Tiger Attack Helicopter. “Having an attack helicopter is brand new to the German Army,” said U.S. Army Chief Warrant Officer 3 Dennis Krumholtz, a battalion tactical operation officer, for the 2/159th Attack Reconnaissance Battalion, 12th Combat Aviation Brigade from Illesheim, Germany. “So, we invited the Germans to participate in our battalion gunnery training here at Grafenwoehr and conducted live-fire training with them.” The German aviators accepted the training invitation and arrived at Grafenwoehr to begin the exercise on a remote range, which would prepare them for a new type of combat situation. “We’ve had anti-tank helicopters that could only be used for attacking tanks, so this is a very big deal for the German Army,” said German Army Maj. Goetz Odendahl, a tactical evaluation officer for the German Army’s 362 Attack Helicopter Battalion.
